Interred Hee our Doctor—we need not deplore hint, He but gone where he'd sent all his patients before BRIBERY AT. ELECTIONS. Mr. Locke, in his Essay on Government, ranks it among those breaches of :trust in the Executive Ma— gistrate,,which, according to his notions, amount to a dissolution of the Government, if he. employs the force, treasure, and offices of the society, to corrupt the representatives, or openly to pre-engage the Electors, and prescribe what manner of persons shall be chosen. For thus to regulate candidates and electors, and new model the ways of election, what is it (says he) but to cut up the Govenunently the roots, and poison the very fountain of 'public security. Enormous, however, as this offence may be, when committed by the Exe cutive branch of the Government, a part of its enor mity is, nevertheless, shared by those electors who permit themselves to be bought by bribery, and they may be assured that the candidate ' who buys them most heartily despises their venality, andbetakes himself to his seat in Parliament as the Representative of his own proper interests, with a full determination to turn his purchase to the best possible account. Look ing at the effect of this offence, both as it regards the elector bribed, and the candidate bribing, it is not difficult to see that the state must suffer, and therefore the law has most properly visited this offence upon the heads of both parties, and holds them alike amenable to its provisions to answer for , the crime they have committed. Thus the treating Act, 7 W. 3. c. 4, has enacted that no candidate shall, after the date of the writs, or after the vacancy, give any money or entertainment to his electors, or promise to give any either to particular persons, or to the place in general, in order to his being elected, on pain of being incapable to serve for that place in Parliament. And by 2 G. 2. c. 24. it is enacted that if any money, gift, office, employment, or reward, be given or promised to be given to any voter, as well he that takes as lie that offers, such bribe forfeits 5001., since raised by 49 G. 3. c. 118. to 10001. and is also disabled to hold any office in any Corporation. The offender is also liable to a criminal prosecution, as was determined in the case of the King against geed and, Pitt, Trinity Term, 2 G. 3.; a miss for ever disquali4ed from votitg at elections, ffhe is convicted of the offence. In ad dition to these penalties, the law, in order to secure the purity of election, directs that every elector shall, if so directed, take the bribery oath; a provision which, besides 'occasioning great loss of time, is not half so efficacious as an enactment requiring the candidate to take such an oath, would in all probability prove. It appears now to be a question whether a candidate who has treated the electors contrary to the 7 W. 3, c. 4, would be permitted to sit, if re-elected, although the words of the act seem scarcely to warrant his total exclusion, and, several decisions of the House of Com mons have confirmed this construction. , But the con trary has been held in several other cases, as in that of Honiton, in 1782, and that of Southwark in 1796. But as treating is to all intent and purposes bribery, it seems that the better opinion now is, that a candidate once convicted of this ohne is for ever incapacitated, and cannot legally take a . seat'in-tho House of Com mons. (See on this point, Corbett and Daniels' Elec. ' tion Cases, 249, and Luther's- Election Cases, 72.) How far the payment of the travelling expences of an' elector is or is not bribery, within the meaning of the before cited acts, would appear to be equally question-, able ; especially as the 49. G. 3, c. 118, has- expressly allowed the payment of any legal expences bona fide incurred at or concerning any election, and there are , not wanting judicial decisions, which go the whole way of alithonsing the payment of travelling charges, and even of some compensation for loss of time. In a debate, however, • in the House of Commons on this question some years back, when a brill, de- , daring such acts bribery, was under consideration, it seemed to be the general opinion that the bribery acts were strong enough to meet the case ; and indeed, it was upon this ground that the bill before mentioned was rejected by the House of Lords; a decision which, at this distance of time, we may be permitted to term a piece of political manoeuvring, which in sub sequent days has been fully successful. This payment of travelling expences and compensation for loss of time, has been productive of a variety of decisions, so that it is hardly possible to arrive at any safe conclu sion as to the law on these points. Lord Mansfield has declared that no further acts against bribery were necessary, meaning to say that the provisions in force were sufficiently general to meet every possible case of bribery that could be brought forward; but subse quent judges have not supported his Lordship's view of the law, and some act declaratory of the meaning and extent of the bribery acts, seems to be highly de. sirable. Money's-worth was not considered bribery-in former times, but little' d oubt can n ow be entertained, that in these enlightened days it would he deemed bribery, and subject the parties to the before mentioned penalties. The effect of even one instance of bribery is to avoid the election altogether, even should a majority of un bribed votes remain after the bad ones are struck through. Although treating is thus penal in its con sequences, it should seem that a distinction exists be tween lavish and moderate entertainment, the latter being allowed ; see Shepherd on Elections, and 2 Peckwell's Election cases, 31. The making of presents after the vote is taken, is another case, not expressly provided for by the be fore named bribery acts, and this has consequently given rise to some discussion. However far removed these subsequent donations may be from the letter of the acts, it is quite clear they are within their s pi r it and meaning, and we should be greatly inclined to think - that the common law would hold this act equally as criminal as more open and notorious bribery ; es peCially where the present has followed the v o t e so speedily, as to admit of no doubt that it was given for the vote, or where it has been made in such a way as given to the same p ar ty. to induce a reasonable expectation that a like reward would attend anothe r vote In the case of Lord Hunti-Pgthwer v. Garden e r, Hil. Term, 1823, where a voter received money after an election for -having voted for a particular person, but was having been s al! payment held not to be brib er y, made before the election, it, no agreement for any • w ithin the. 2 Gad. 11. 04 but it will be r b et e d that it was against cases of this kind that, the resolutions proposed by Lord J. Russell, on the 27th o fMay, 1826, were particularly directed. This deci ion is only confirmatory of those in 2 Douglass Election cases, 137, an d 2 Peckwell Election cases, 467. Innkeepers would also do well to be on their guard, as in case the candidate should refuse here after to pay his bill, no action at law will lie to recover the amount, a point which has now been too long settled and at the same time too proper and reasonable to admit of being shaken. Wagers as to the event of an election are illegal on two grounds, first that they operate as bribes, and second, that they are gaming contracts—see the case of Allen v. Heath, Michaelmas Term, 1785. Money given to purchase the freedom of a borough also held to be bribery, but the payment of the fees on ad mission by the atl gent of the candidate, appears to be allowed. Such are the provisions of the law regarding bribery at elections, and such the judicial determinations that have at different times elucidated these acts. The de cisions of an Election Committee of the House C4l Commons are entitled to like weight and conside ration, as the more solemn judgments of a Court. of Law, and would be quoted before another Com mittee of the same House, with perhaps greater effect than those of the Courts of Law. _ In conclusion, we have only to hint to candidates and electors the necessity of caution on this point, and add, for the benefit of those who are disposed to carry the election of their man by riot and disturbance, and the use of the military, that the one has been held to avoid the election, and a new writ has been ordered to be issued, and the Attorne)-General directed to prosecute ; and for the latter, Magistrates havT ere this been reprimanded on their knees by the Speaker, and qlections even declared void. Such conduct, in deed, unless in case of very serious and alarming dis turbances, infringes upon the constitution, and those popular ,rights and privileges of which the House of Commons is in an especial manner the guardian and protector. From the LONDON GAZETTI3, Ju;E Admiralty-Office, June 22, 1826., • Vice-Admiral Sir Harry Neale has transmitted to John Wilson : croker; Esq. a letter from Captain Hamilton, of his Majesty's ship Cambrian, inclosing a report from Captain George Hope "Johnsone, of his Majesty's sloop Alacrity, of the destruction of four piratical vessels, on the 9th and 10th of April last, under the Greek islands of Ipura and Andros. The Alacrity having left Stnyrna Bay on the 6th of April, was passing the island of Inure, on the morning of the 9th, when two misticoei, deceived by the manner in which Captain Hope John stone had disguised her being a brig of war, came out from under Autipsera, and gave' chase to her. The Captain allowed them to near the Alacrity, but when within about two miles of her, they discovered that she was a vessel of war, and did their utmost to get away with sweeps and sails. The Alacrity made all sail to cut them oir; and the boats were sent in chace of them, under the orders of Lieutenant Triscot, First of the Alacrity. After pulling more than thirteen miles, the boats forced the pirates to ground their vessels, and, to fly on shore in Ipsara Mole, where they took npa position in front of some ruined houses near the Mole. The pirates were about fifty in number, more than double the number of the Alacrity's party; and on being asked to send their I.Noler to the Commander of the boats, they answered with a volley of musketry, which was promptly trimmed from the boats; Lieutenant Triscott, with 144 at and men, then leaped on Ain't, and the pirate. !fed, availi,%thentpeke* of the shelter pith, hduses to escape to the hills. Thr boats returned to the Alacrity, twinging with them the two niisticova whirl, Captain llope.tohn atone caused to be burnt and scuttle d, and two prisoners, a man and a boy, who reported that two of the pirates were wounded. No person of the Alacrity's party . was hurt. Early in the morning of the following day, the Alacrity being in the Doro Passage, Captain Hope Johnston. discovered two mistimes standing out from a bay in the island of Andros to cut her off; and observing them shortly after tack and stand back, be made all rail in chase and sent the cutter to pursue them, under the command of Lieut. Triscott. The crews of the misticoes, upwards of 60 in number, landed, and took possession of an old tower, situated on a rock, which commanded the creek into which they had run their vessels; and ae the cutter came near they opened a very heavy fire of musketry on her, which was instantly and smartly returned, the haat pushing on is a most gallant and judicious manner. The Alacrity covered her with her guns, and fired several broadsides, which assisted to drive the pirates (rain the rocks. Lieut. Triscott and his men, IS in all, landed, and, pursued the pirates up the hills, keeping up a sharp fire on them, whilst the Alacrity anchored, and the Captain sent the other boats to assist. Shortly after the boats returned, and brought with theta the two mistieoes, which were burnt and scuttled, and three prisoners, one of them severely wounded. Two seamen end one marine were wounded in the Alacrity's cutter; and in setting one of the mistimes on fire, an explosion unfortunately took place, by which Lieut. Wheelie was severely burnt. Captain Hope Johnsthtte, in his report, expresses the highest approbation of the conductof his officers and men ; and in trans mitting the report, Sir Harry Neale, as well as Captain Hamilton commend the active and spirited exertions of Captain Johnstone, and of Lieut.
